Escape the famine with full-level supplies

Chapter 48 What are you afraid of?

Li Changhu has been looking for good people in two days. Everyone is very happy to hear that a hunter has come to the village.

The wages are also reasonable, so there are many laborers who are willing to work.

Excavating the adobe and digging the foundation is exhausting work.

"Hey? Why are there only a few children in this family? Where did the adults go?"

A few men were digging the foundation, and they saw only a few children in the shack, and no adults at all.

Hearing this, Li Changhu replied, "These are the only children in this family."

"what?"

"How come there are only a few children? Can you give me this salary?" One of the men looked hesitant.

If you don't give money, wouldn't it be a waste of time to work?How come this happened.

Hearing this, everyone looked at Li Changhu, feeling uncomfortable.

Li Changhu raised his head and wiped the sweat from his brow, and said, "He has money, what are you afraid of?"

That's what he said, but the others stopped moving and stood where they were.

A black-faced man said: "Changhu, didn't you say this is Orion? Why are you still lying?"

Even if it is a few children, they have to give money. Besides, they are here for hunters, so they can buy any game in the future.

"That's right, we are all from the same village. If we don't explain clearly, it's a waste of work!"

Several people complained for a while, and stopped working one after another.

The two people who were taking off the adobe at the side also stopped when they saw this, and asked what happened.

"What? Something?"

"What else is this doing?"

Everyone stopped what they were doing and stood by and said unhappy words.

Lu Jinnian has been preparing food in the shack. Cornmeal is mixed with white flour to make steamed buns. The dishes include wild boar. When the time comes, stewed radishes will do.

Hearing chattering outside, she came out to see that everyone was gathered together and no one was working.

"What happened?" She walked over curiously and asked.

Seeing her come out, Li Changhu said, "Tell them."

Although he said this, everyone will know about Lu Jinnian's situation sooner or later. Even if they don't say it now, others are not fools, otherwise they wouldn't have asked about it just now.

Besides, they are all from the same village. If people ask him about the situation of the Lu family, is he going to lie?
Hearing this, Lu Jinnian became even more puzzled, looked at the villagers and said, "Everyone, if you have anything to tell me."

"What's the matter?" A dark-faced man came out and said, "I heard you said that it was Orion who came to help. Changhu said that there are only a few of you in your family. Who will pay us?"

"That's right, there isn't even an adult?" Others agreed one after another.

There is no adult, let alone Orion, even wages cannot be paid.

Hearing what they said, Lu Jinnian understood what was going on.

With a flat face, she replied: "It is true that there are no adults in our family, but I have reached the age of a family, and I am the head of my family."

"You're afraid that I won't be able to pay you, so I'll do it right now, five cents per person, you come to me to get it, and you have to finish the work for me."

It doesn't matter if it's money or not, the work must be done well, this is her bottom line.

Hearing that wages will be paid, everyone hesitated for a while, is this true?
But the black-faced man had already come over, and I saw Lu Jinnian took out five cents from his pocket and handed it over, which was really good.

Others came forward one after another and waited for the money, and after a while, all of them received their wages.

Lu Jinnian walked up to Li Changhu and said, "Uncle Li, this is your wages. Please help me take care of it. I just started working today, and I still have to cook."

She wouldn't blame others for not helping her, after all, they were all from the village, and she came later, so it's normal for others not to believe her.

Li Changhu didn't want this salary at first, but it was already in his hands, and everyone else was watching, so they accepted it.

"Don't worry about this, they are all from Lijiazhuang, and the folks in the village have to take their work seriously." He said this not only for the people on the other side, but also for the helpers.

Hearing this, Lu Jinnian nodded, and then went back to continue working.

The wild pork needs to be stewed for a while, and the younger siblings have gone to collect firewood, so the cooking work falls on her.

Seeing the person leaving, the other people felt a little embarrassed, and the doubts just now were all resolved by the money.

It's not good for everyone to pick things up, hurry up and start working.

Lu Jinnian saw that everyone was working not far away, so she didn't look any further. In fact, she understood what these people were thinking. They just thought that they were all children, so she was afraid that no one would pay them.

This is also normal, anyway, she has no idea who to make friends with, after the house is built, she will settle the major issues of her siblings, and then retire to the mountains and forests.

After the meat was stewed, Lu Jinnian greeted Lu Jinxin, who had come back from picking up firewood, and asked her to look at the pot, while he went up the mountain.

The meat at home is limited. Although there are ready-made meat in the space, it will only make people suspicious if it is not sourced.

With an axe, a basket on his back and a simple bow and arrow, he went out.

She made this bow and arrow by herself, so she knows how to use this thing all the year round.

She can't do things that are too complicated, but simple ones that can hunt pheasants and rabbits are still possible.

As Lu Jinnian walked all the way up the mountain, everyone who worked on the homestead saw it.

"Is this going to pick up wild vegetables?" The black-faced man started looking for trouble again.

He couldn't see the work here, if he hadn't been given five cents, how could he have come here?

It is not easy to make money in the countryside, and everyone rushes to do any helper work.

Li Changhu on the side frowned and said, "Li Changzhong! If you don't want to work, go home, there are plenty of young men waiting to come over!"

In Lijiazhuang, the surname Li is a common surname. The neighbors live in this neighborhood, and most of them haven't given five clothes yet.

There are also other scattered surnames. There are more than 100 households in Lijiazhuang all the year round, and they live scattered.

Hearing this, Li Changzhong laughed awkwardly, "Brother Hu, what are you talking about, of course I want to work."

He said so on the face, but he was disdainful in his heart.If it weren't for the fact that Li Changhu's words in the clan carry a lot of weight, he wouldn't give face.

Naturally, Lu Jinnian didn't know what happened after she left, but she wandered around, but found no game.

Probably they were all swept away by the people in the village. If you really want to find them, you have to go to the deep mountains.

But there was no time, so after wandering around for about an hour, she returned with the pheasant in the space.

There are only two in total, and you can make a pot of dishes with more side dishes.

Don't eat this today, and eat it tomorrow.

After returning home, the dishes were almost stewed, and the smell wafted far away.

The working men stretched their necks to look towards the shack one by one, swallowing their saliva.

The main reason is that there is no meat to eat. Except for the holidays, who can eat meat every day?Maybe the Lizheng family has this condition.
